Hi Niels, in the attachment a list of raw benchmark results (not yet nicely tabulated) using ROOT from the cvs head. It shows a.o. the results on my Apple dual G5 2GHz. Cheers, Fons.

The stressLinear benchmark performs a large set of ROOT matrix and linear algebra operations. Mainly stressing the machines floating point capabilities (double precision). The stress benchmark performs a large mix of typical ROOT data analysis operations, I/O, fitting, histogramming, etc. All numbers are in so called ROOTMARKS unless otherwise stated. Higher is better. The compile time number is the time it takes to compile and link the 1.5M lines of ROOT source code. It is a measure of the quality of a machine as software development platform. All machines have 1GB RAM or more. The Athlon64 FX-53 machine costs about 1.8k CHF. The P4 machine about 1.4k CHF. The Apple G5 about 2k CHF/CPU. Prices are per CPU per GB RAM. Sverre knows the price per CPU/GB of the HP Itanium machines. Both the Athlon64 and Itanium binaries were compiled for 64 bit. The Athlon64 has the added advantage that 32 bit Intel binaries run without recompilation (about 10-15% slower) making the migration very smooth.
